I've seen member status such as Newbie, Senior Member, Moderator, Addict, etc. Can anyone explain the criteria for each category or point me to a thread explaining how this works? Thanks.
This is in the wrong section but, I will help you out anyway. The new, just imposed rule makes it so Newbies can only post once every 3 mintutes (to help eliminate spammers) but, other then that I can't remember any "rules" etc. other then the forum ones of course! http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/253386 - More on the "Anti-Spam" measure I talked about. Here is where this should be posted: http://forums.afterdawn.com/forum_view.cfm/45 Peace, Pop Smith
Hello Pop Smith, That's not what I asked, rather, what is the difference between the different membership categories and such as Newbie; Senior Member; Addict and so on and how does one either progress through these rankings or have assigned one of these titles? Incidentally, where should my original question have been posted -- I am so confused! [bold]Thank you.[/bold]
Hi, Hopefully this will help http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260595. Read about a 1/3 way down and you will see how the rankings come about. Please keep in mind that even though "promotion" up to addict is based on the number of posts it is about quality not quantity. Posting useless babble will get you on bad terms with the usual folks and mods/ admins do have the option of banning you. As you stick around you will see the wealth of free "tech" support provided and eventually learn to help others who are just learning. The link Pop_Smith provided was the forum for all other topics which is where he suggested your question should have been asked. Hope that clears it up for you.
i'll teleport this to a relevant forum ps this is one of the best/easiest links to have here at Afterdawn - http://forums.afterdawn.com ..gives you a good heads up as to which forums are which/what they cover, and the nice thing is it's an easy way to see if a particular forum has new threads in it.. There's a link to the Forum Rules in my signature..
In case you still havent figured out the rank... Newbie - 0-25 Posts Junour Member - 25 Posts Member - 100 Posts Senior Member - 500 Posts Afterdawn Addict - 2500 Posts Moderator - Do what their title says--moderate the forums.
